Calibre Wings have designed their tooling to include many features that are important to F-14 fans, including a couple that aren't currently offered by the competition:
Historical:
In 2001 VF-41 "Black Aces" made their final F-14 carrier deployment in 2001 before transitioning to the F/A-18E. To mark this occasion each aircraft aircraft had "Last Tomcat Cruise 1976-2001" printed on the vertical stabilizers, "First to Strike" on the port side leading edge and "First to Fight" on the starboard leading edge. A Maintenance Master Chief had named each aircraft after eleven of his girlfriends so it was decided to paint a name on the starboard side of each aircraft's radome. The CAG's aircraft BuNo 162608 received "Anna". This model has a "clean" paint finish without panel line shading. Please note: An optional display stand is available separately if you wish to display this model "in-flight".
